    Classic Hamburger 10" Round
    Lindsey H.

    If you're from the area, you'll appreciate the history of La Casa and how they became an Omaha staple. There is not one bad thing on their menu and the food is always solid. The service is wonderful and I love the vibe of the restaurant. Their Classic Hamburger pizza with both cheeses has been my go to and it was my dear Grandma's favorite pizza as well. Before she had passed away, we surprised her with La Casa pizza and onion rings and she said 'this is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.' I have made many memories at La Casa and it will forever be one of Omaha's treasured gems.

    Always makes me smile

    Finally came back to the OG La Casa after 5 years. As our last experience was insanely awful. I am pleased to say tonight was great! Our server was very friendly and kind. The food was hot and delicious! Sadly I wanted eggplant parmigiana but they were out of eggplant so I went with good ol chicken Parm. All is good again! Amen!

    This legendary 1953 Italian restaurant on 44th & Leavenworth in Omaha is definitely worth checking out. Walking in you will see a lot of their accomplishments on the walls over the years. Impressive. Our family of 5 walked in for lunch & was greeted & seated right away. They have a long menu list of all your favorite Italian food options, plus pizza lunch special: 2 slices of house select pizza & salad $9.50! The only down side to their pizza special is they prepare it early so they can have it ready quickly for their lunch rush, but that doesn't allow for any alterations, such as requesting light cheese or no olives. Their pizza slices are approx 4x4 squares & they were served what looked overcooked, but my family said it was delicious! I chose their Eggplant Parmesan that was very tasty & covered in cheeses-Romano & Mozzarella. I also tried their Chicken Parmesan that was a nice piece of chicken lightly breaded & topped with cheese & Marinara. These dishes come with a side choice of either spaghetti, mostaccioli, vegetable or fries. A favorite of mine is their toasted ravioli appetizer, filled with meat & meat sauce. Worth trying! For desserts we tried wedding cake & cheese cake. Both fresh & YUM!

    La Casa is only a few miles from our neighborhood but this was the first time we had been here. It won't be the last. The tables are nicely spaced out so you don't feel like your're on top of each other. The ceiling looks like tin stamped-old-timey tiles and helps keep the noise down, although it was kind of noisy when we were there. I ordered a glass of wine, which turned out to be sweeter than I liked--Valkenburg Dorfender. Lesson learned. Bookguy ordered Penne shrimp Calabrian with extra shrimp. The presentation was impressive as the waiter plated it at the table from a casserole dish. Bookguy thought it was delicious and not lacking in shrimp. I ordered a small plate of mostaccioli with marinara. I liked how they offer smaller portions. Our entrees came with a standard dinner salad and rolls. We both enjoyed our meals and the atmosphere. I also liked how the waiter, Trent, whisked my leftovers away to box up to take home. Somehow this is more refined than just giving us a box to load at the table. All in all we had a great dinner.

    I personally love a crispy thin crust pizza. They also have a great pizza sauce. Plus their ranch is incredible.

Friendly service, comfy setting, and oh yeah - the food! Unfortunately for me, there is too much seafood on the menu but there's always something. People rave about the seafood dishes so I'll trust them and say it must be good. I'm just not into it. On this visit, we each ordered a cocktail. I decided to try the lemon martini which I never order and OH MY GOODNESS. It was awesome! They nailed it. The limoncello brought it home. My dining partner had a dirty martini and was satisfied as well. We enjoyed a Spezia salad which featured mixed greens, prosciutto, tomato, Kalamata olives, and a house vinaigrette. It all combined so well. The lettuce was wonderfully fresh, no need to pick out rotting leaves like some places. The dressing was simply light and delish. We shared a plate of spaghetti. You get several options to add to it. The grilled spicy Italian sausage sounded good. I'm not sure which was better. The sausage or the marinara sauce. Both were soooooo good!! The sausage was truly grilled and spicy and just amazing, and it was not greasy either. The marinara sauce challenged my own that I make at home. We devoured that plate of spaghetti which was big enough to share. I forgot to take a picture as it was served so I am sharing a tight shot of half the order after we divided it.

    Spezia, you let me down!…read more Our waiter struggled to keep up with the dinner rush. We arrived for our reservation and were seated at 6:40 where we weren't greeted by our waiter for quite awhile. It took a long time to get our drinks and I had to ask for bread so we decided to skip appetizers and go straight to our entree. When ordering the entree our waiter said "and which salad would you like?" And then listed the salad options. Normally when ordering a main and the waiter says which salad do you want that's because the salad comes with the meal. Nope. We were charged $11 per salad that we didn't even really want. The salads were your average side salad, but thankfully had good dressings. We hadn't brought up salads, the waiter did when we ordered our entree. So we were disappointed to have $20+ in salads that we didn't request until the waiter offered them. Our salads were finished for at least 15 minutes before our main entree came out at about 7:30, nearly an hour after we had been seated. My shrimp scampi was good, the broccolini was a touch under cooked but the flavors were still good, and the shrimp was surprisingly large in size and cooked exactly how it should be. Had we been served quicker and not offered things that didn't come with our meal when ordering our meal we may have been happier, hard to say. The table next to us was sat about 10 minute after us and had a different waitress. They received their entire meal (including bread & apps) and left before we were offered dessert. The food is good, I won't discredit that at all. But when coming to a restaurant like this you are expecting a level of service that we just didn't get. I'm sure we'll try again in the future and if service is better I will definitely update my review but for now, this was a let down of a birthday dinner.

    Vincenzo's is easily the best Italian food in Omaha, hands down. The food was absolutely fantastic…read more Every dish was flavorful, well prepared, and clearly made with care. For the quality you get, the prices are hard to beat, which makes the experience even better. The ambiance is warm and classic, exactly what you would hope for in a traditional Italian restaurant. It feels authentic and comfortable. Service was fair overall, but they were extremely busy when we visited. Our server was clearly working hard and doing their best to keep up, which I appreciated. On peak nights this place fills up quickly, so reservations are definitely recommended. If you are looking for great Italian food in Omaha, Vincenzo's should be at the top of your list.

This is a MUST HAVE, I repeat a must‑have. Perfect crisp outside, soft inside, next‑level cheese pull, and that garlic drizzle seals the deal. I could've eaten just that and left happy. For the main course, I had the penne bolognese fiorna, and it was flawless (rich, fresh, and a generous portion). My better half went for the Big Vinny Combo (chicken parmigiana, fettuccine Alfredo, baked lasagna). Everything hit except the Alfredo needing a touch more salt... though she definitely didn't need any help enjoying those glasses of wine. The kiddo crushed her cavatappi with shrimp -- fork never stopped moving, and she couldn't stop talking about how good it was. Though it could be considered slightly pricey, it's absolutely worth it. I'll definitely be back.

    We worked up a big appetite after spending the day at the Omaha zoo. Plus the hubby wanted pizza!…read moreThanks to Yelp for this find, it was only a 8-minute drive from the zoo. We started off with happy hour drinks and calamari. The lemonchello and Negroni are strong!!! You've been warned! The calamari was surprisingly delicious. It didn't have a fishy taste, the breading was thin, tasty and yummy. The sauces it came with were also bomb. It had a nice kick along with pickled peppers that I could eat by itself. Now to the stars of the show -- margherita and pepperoni pizza. Wow. It almost felt like our taste buds were transported to Italy after the first few bites. Both of these pizzas were on the happy hour menu. I strongly recommend getting them if you're in a pizza mood. From the fresh dough, to fresh cheese and marinara sauce.. these pizzas alone are a huge reason we will come back. Our daughter had the buttered noodles which were also tasty. Our server was great, food came out in a timely manner. The space itself is clean and cozy. There is a bar, plus indoor and outdoor seating.

Based on the food alone, this easily could have been a 4-star experience. Unfortunately, the service made us feel like we were an inconvenience from the moment we walked in. We didn't have a reservation, and I completely understand that it was a Friday around 6 p.m. in a small restaurant near the Old Market. We fully expected we might have to wait. Instead, we were told, "Well, all I have is this table for two, but I need it by 7." It was about 5:45, so we said that was totally fine and we'd easily be finished by then. From that point on, though, it felt like the clock was ticking. We were seated and immediately given water, which was great, but we already felt rushed so we quickly chose a pizza and focaccia to split. Once the food arrived, the check-ins became frequent enough that it was hard not to notice. As soon as we took the last piece of focaccia, the board was whisked away. As soon as we took the last piece of pizza, that was cleared too. The check came almost immediately. We were in and out in about 30 minutes...roughly 45 minutes before they actually needed the table. Take that for what it's worth, positive or negative. I want to give a lot of grace because it was a busy Friday night, but the overall atmosphere from the service, including a hostess who seemed visibly unhappy much of the time, kept this from being a four-star experience for us. The food is absolutely worth having again, but next time we'd probably choose carryout so we can enjoy it without feeling like a nuisance for being there.
